If I were you, I would jump on Gabriel. I've watched Doug since he was at UCF (Go Knights) and he is a physical freak with great talent. Oakland never used him and he was lost in their core of young receivers. Brady does spread the ball around but in 2 games, Gabriel has had at least 5 catches, 60 yards and a touch per outing. That's over 10 fantasy points in most leagues. Not too shabby at all. Brady will look for a number one guy like he had with Branch and Gabriel fills that role nicely.
Don't get rid of Jennings. This guy is the replacement to Donald Driver and is already eclipsing his Driver's production. Berrian's a keeper too with Grossman looking to him downfield and Rex being hot.
I've never been a big fan of Walker or Denver's offense with Plummer. I doubt Bruce will put up stud numbers week in and week out so I'd say Gabriel is an improvement over those two.

That's a lot of depth for recievers this week. I wouldn't pick up on Doug Gabriel just yet. Brady has a history of spreading the ball around, so Gabriel won't have as many looks on the offense like last week. In the NE offense, there are no #1 reciever in the offense, so anybody can have a breakout game in one week and the other next week. The running game is finally alive in the form of Dillon and Maroney, so Brady doesn't have pressure to pass the ball that much. However, don't let Gabriel out of your sight just yet but don't buy it that's he replaced Deion Branch as the go-to guy.

I would drop Bruce and pick up Gabriel. Gabriel looks like he will become Brady's #1. I feel Holt will grab the lions share of TDs in STL so Bruce is expendable.

You want Gabrile well get rid of a back up kicker or D ..but if you have to throw one of those out get rid of Jennings. the rest of your starters will produce ..Jennings is not even the #1 wr on his team ..thats Donald Driver man.
Gabriel is now Brady's go to guy. So pick him up now.

Go with bruce to get rid of, he is a 3rd string reicever for the rams and the rams are commited to the run now.So dont expect over 3 TDS for him this seosen, a got estemit for him this seosen is 3 tds and 550 reiciving yards. All of ur other wr will probably get over 650 yards and 5 tds if they dont get injured.So pick up gabriel and let go of bruce.

Jennings. I never thought I would say this about Brett Favre, but right now, Jennings has the least consistent quarterback throwing to him. Walker is a close second for the same reason.

I like Doug E Fresh, a lot; but I still wouldn't drop any of those guys for him. Chad'll eventually find the endzone. Even if Gabriel truly pans out as a #1 in NE, he'll be alot more like DGivens than DBranch in that offense. Tom spreads it around too much.
-Regards!
(ps, please give a look-see to my Serious Q - GLewis or MRob at WR. Thanks!)

If anybody, drop Jennings, but I would keep all of them over Gabriel.

You have great receivers, try dropping a TE or a back up defense and use some of those guys to trade.
